"Bet On My Ghost" lyrics
"Bet On My Ghost"
Well, I often think about my wings and if I'm dead or alive
'Cause the world just seems like an empty dream, they say that it gets better with time
Every word I say when I'm not okay just seems to go away with the wind
If you felt my pain and held my weight, you'd know I'm too broke to fix
From screaming loud to yelling soft, I ain't wiser, I've just grown
And I hate to admit, but the man I am is a man that you do not wanna know
Rather be right here or the end of the road
If I don't make it there, you can bet on my ghost
I cannot forget back then 'cause it's all I know
So I'll stand on the ashes that I call home
I'm finding out that time don't heal the things that should've never begun
All the walls I've burnt for no damn earn is something I could never have planned
When you're walking alone for this damn long, you know that there's nothing to reach
Only thing I've made from all this pain is a head staring down at my feet
From screaming loud to yelling soft, I ain't wiser, I've just grown
And I hate to admit, but the man I am is a man that you do not wanna know
Rather be right here than the end of the road
If I don't make it there, you can bet on my ghost
I cannot forget back then 'cause it's all I know
So I'll stand on the ashes that I call home
So I'll stand on the ashes that I call home
